I just want to be loaded. Or at least more well off.

I’d move somewhere else of my choice, nicer area, maybe even with an Aldi really close by. Have a real vegetable garden (hiring help if needed) and share the produce with other people. A bottom mount fridge freezer for meal prep. A big catio and/or catproofing so Miss Moo can sunbathe and play in grass without absconding.

A garage or shed to paint in and enough privacy to play music/sing/learn an instrument if I chose. A fire pit and a zone with times where it’s allowed.

Get less stressed and work on my health.

Above all I’d just like to afford to move out of this neighbourhood and not be squeezed in with other people. I just want to live in peace and be left the fuck alone.

My idea of "making it" is being able to live somewhere where you have choice of train, bus and tram.

But in general I agree, I'd like to be able to live with my partner instead of living at home with my mum. I mean I never really had a plan past 18 except a general idea (depression sucks) but I hate being 28 and living at home. While I'm happy that she didn't kick me out once I turned 18 but still.
